A Book for Her

by Bridget Christie - £8.99  Cornerstone (Arrow Books Ltd) (2016)
paperback    ISBN 13: 9780099590842 | ISBN 10: 0099590840

Bridget Christie is a stand-up comedian, idiot and feminist. On the 30th of April 2012, a man farted in the Women's Studies Section of a bookshop and it changed her life forever.
 
A Book For Her details Christie's twelve years of anonymous toil in the bowels of stand-up comedy and the sudden epiphany that made her, unbelievably, one of the most critically acclaimed British stand-up comedians this decade, drawing together the threads that link a smelly smell in the women's studies section to the global feminist struggle.
�
Find out how nice Peter Stringfellow's fish tastes, how yoghurt advertising perpetuates rape myths, and how Emily Bronte used a special ladies' pen to write Wuthering Heights.
�
If you're interested in comedy and feminism, then this is definitely the book for you. If you hate both then I'd probably give it a miss.
